The Feast of the Ascension can be celebrated regionally in the 1962 Missal in two churches: at St-Mary-on-the-Hill in Wednesbury at 6.30pm, and at the Oratory at 7.30pm, which is a High Mass replacing the usual 5.45pm Low Mass. Directions to both churches are available in the sidebar.
The 26th May would normally be the Feast of St Philip Neri, founder of the Oratory. This will instead be celebrated on Sunday at the Oratory. The music lists for these Feasts are available below.
